Mr.. Editor:---
The article which
appeared in your issue of Februa-
ry 26th in reference to certain
dissatisfaction In Mt Zion church
seems to have excited the ire of
"B. L the majesty OF the law who
is outraged aud proceeds to put
into point his opinion an opinion
not shared by the members of the
congregation. His remarks that
the Reverned Mr.. Collins is a
christian gentleman is conceded
by all, nothing to the contrary
was ever asserted.
Mr.. Collins i'll his personal hab-
its and mode of life is all that
could be desired, but these alone
do not qualify him for the pasto-
rate of an intellectual and pro-
gressive church. "B. F." shows the
weakness of his argument by
dragging into the discussion a
point that was never raised | am
prep, red to prove that the church
has refrigerated for the causes
thus stated aud not because the
associations have been interfered
with which are prosperous and
working together for the good of
the church. AS to b. F's. point of
one man holding more than one
office, he seems to forget that he
himself holds two, the presidency
and treasurership OF the Organ
association. Why does he not
show his devotion to principle by
holding one only? The entire off
cial board of the church Is com
posed of gentleman of the highest
integrity and every cent entrusted
in their care is used for the ex-
press purpose for which it is raised.

SABBATH DISSERTATION"
Ministers Who Would Like to See
the Blue Laws Again in Force.

CHICAGO. Nov. 2S.-At meeting of
the pastors of the various Protestant
denominations held to-day, the subject
of Sabbath dissertation was discussed.
Rev. c. f. Vaudeville read five small
papers on Sunday dissertation, and
moved that they be presented to the
Washington conference with the under
standing that the conference appoint a
committee to lay the subject before con-
greSS. The first paper said that But
for Sabbath Dissertation there would be
no such class as anarchi SITS in this coun-
try 1t callSforsa combine among the
church people to down the demon of
Sabbath dissertation. The proposed
plan strikes at every form of labor now
INDUCED in on the Sabbath day. The
ministers propose to petition congress to
enact laws, first to dispense with carry
ing mail and holding postOffices open on
Sunday. The paper is addressed to the
house of representatives in congress as
sembled, and says: 1.-The telegraph is
now used to transmit all important
news. and, therefore, there is no absO-
lutte necessity for running mail on the
Sabbath. Consequently the running of
mails on that day is in violation of state

the directors of the railroads in the
United States, and says: 1.-The increased
rate of travel and transportation, as
compared with that used in the days of
our fathers, has so multiplied the facili
ties of diSpatching business that there is
no necessity of running trains more
than six days in week" The last pa
per is addressed to the proprietOrs of
the public press of the United States,
and says: 1.-The Sabbath is the dividing
line between Christianity and heathen-
ism; that it is the bulwark that showed
Christian civilization against anarchy,
and that every influence that tends to
weaken the power of the Sabbath over
the public conscience endangerS the
stability of our Republican institutions;
that the business of publishing and sell
ing newspapers on the Sabbath is in
open violation of our state laws. We
therefore respectfully request you to
papers on Sunday. -

THE ATLANTA ELECTION.
How the Result Is Regarded by
the Wet and Dry Elements.

ATLANTA, Nov. 2S.-The wet" and
"dry" editors of the Atlanta COnstitu-
ton give their opinion to the world on
the subject of why Atlanta Went
Wet" Evan f. Howell, the "wet"
editor. says;
1.-The prohibition law had been tried
for two years and it had proved fail
ure. The Prohibitionists claim that it
did not have fair trial. The constant
agitation of prohibition for years has
been the only bad result have noted so
far as it affects the city. There were
certainly large quantities of liquor
brought into the city every day from
neighboring cities. and the large ma
iority given for anti-pr0hibitiOn was not
only a protest against the law, but
against the strife and bitterness engen-
dered in the first campaign. l am GER
tain that the conservative men on both
sides will come together and throw
around the retail sale of liquor all nee
eSsary restraints, and that it will be
better for the city. The part the women
took in the election at the polls has
beer greatly exaggerated"
Henry w. Grady, ti!e dry" editor,
says:
